Dear Anis,
Tnx 4 inform me, I checked it at that address & u r right.I should use comma be4 "then" :)
About prep. u have the right caz I didnt look it up in dictionary,but about using comma I think there is no need to use it. e.g. :the only remedy is to rest
the only sulotion is to study
In such examples we use "," or not?
It seems redundant.what's ur idea?
resort means cure,remedy,way out,....I think we can use it.
-I dont know to do about him,he evades of his responsibility !
-The only resort is to give him the green light then, u will see how he can be useful !
